Bringing community back into health care—one day at a time.
Having fun and providing a structured environment are essential to nourishing the mind and body—especially for those with Alzheimer’s or other varying degrees of Dementia. At AmeriCare ADHC, our multidisciplinary team of trained health professionals take to heart the importance of emotional well-being as much as physical well-being.
Our services include: therapeutic activities, occupational, physical, and speech therapy, nursing services, personal care services, psychological services, and social services, medication management, hot meals and nutritional counseling, transportation to and from the senior citizen day care center, music, art, and pet therapies to help enrich and liven up each day, and so much more!
“It gives my children a break from caregiving duties. The
adult day healthcare program also helps me take my diabetes medications properlysince there is a registered nurse on site at all times.”
